[_-/| The War Helmet]

More excellent work

If you had read my last review... (In the cracked noble heart) this would make sense:

As the village turned to dust, the former members formed 7 kingdoms. At first, the kingdoms were peaceful to each other, and this lasted for many years. However, as the kingdoms grew, land became a concern. The need for land soon became greed, and greed became war. One by one, the kingdoms plunged into war. Eventually, the war had caused a depression, and the kingdoms suffered riots and rebellions. However, many of the kingdom's dwellers had left. they decided to form a new kingdom, one ruled by democracy.

Wow, your peices have inspired me to write a novel now... keep em coming!

MaestroSegments responds:

Many of the songs I write, are from short novels I write myself, I am glad you see a story to the pieces, that means, that they have proven succesful ^^.

Thanks for the review ^^.

You are a Master...teach me

You are a true meastro... listening to your songs portrays images in my mind. What I saw in this one is an exodus of sorts -- millions of people leaving, a crowd as far as the eye can see. The world around them is barren... like a desert. And in deserts I see peace, a peace not found anywhere else, and the people realize the peace as well, and enjoy it. They slowly build a community in the middle of nowhere, and plant crops. Amazingly, there food grows, from the grace of a mystical being. The village thrives, until the people start to leave and start new adventures. The mystical being slowly diminishes. And when the village is gone,, it is then that they realize that it is the spirit of the people that had gave the mystical being it's life. I am new to composing, you can check out my page... anyways my main question is how do u kinda "know" what notes to write. Because I can make songs in my head, songs that make stories, but i cannot transcribe, although i've been playing piano for many years now...

MaestroSegments responds:

hmmm... where to begin? I'll be honest, my melodies are really just things that come to me, I begin with a simple melody, and then layer on top of it. Counter Melodies I suppose are the biggest bulk of my music. I love to layer on counter melodies, and I do a lot of pieces with that, so that may in the end result to being able to put together things together.

Before any of that however, I always always have a story, image, or feeling in mind, as you have just shown me, the song must be able to invoke a story, and in order to achieve that, you must take that feeling/image/story, and assign instruments to it that you feel would best portray that feeling.

Ie.

This piece, my image was that of a great king, who spent many many decades battling an old friend, turned to his enemy through polotics. They meet in the forest, and though they are both weary, they are both tired of fighting, they unsheathe their blades, and in the serene forest scene, they run into each other.

They fight for many hours, until they both simentanously deliver a lethal blow to the other's chest. The king'd wound is deeper, and so his rival dies quickly, a smile on his face.

The king digs a shallow grave and throws his friend into it. He covers the grave, and stabs his blade into the mount. Leaning against blade, he grins, and dies.

This was the story, now lets look at instruments to go with it.

The harp and string chords, sets the sad feeling right away, the harp gives that serene, medieval melody.

The French Horns is the essence of royalty in this piece, the slow melody of the horn, like fading determinition.

The panflute, works generally to invoke memories, I think it is one the best instruments to do so. So I used it here to portray their child hood memories, and the kings ultimate sacrafice.

I hope this was helpful, I cannot tell you "This note and this note together will make this song god!", but I can tell you, this, and this is the thinking behind all of my music.

Take the instruments, give them a role, understand what it is they can and want to say for your story/image/feeling, and then let them write themselves.

Thanks for the review ^^.
